Not all surf fishing situation require a heavy sinkered rig and an out-of-sight cast. In fact most of the time successful surf-fishing involves correctly reading the gutter formations that attract predatory species in search of their prey. When you’ve got that worked out, you need a rod that can handle the fast and furious action that’s likely to take place. Double-hookups of salmon and tailor are no problem for the ‘Assassin’. Designed for the active beach angler, the Assassin’s light weight – only 375grams – means that holding the rod all day while unhooking fish and re-baiting becomes a breeze; enabling you to make the most of the action. Built from Toray IM-8 graphite and fitted out with Fuji BHVLG guides, the Assassin is an amazing casting tool that has the power to tackle a wide range of species.
